Prostitution rampant in Japanese Schools, Prices Below $35
Jul 5, 2009
Prostitution is said to be rampant in Japanese schools, with schoolgirls of ever younger ages selling their bodies for extra spending money, both to adults and amongst themselves.
Prices for girls in elementary school are said to have dropped below $35, leading some to wonder what has and will become of the nation’s public morals…
In many cases the prostitution is conducted through “deai-kei” sites, often relationship focused BBSes designed for use with mobile phones.
In one illustrative case, a middle school boy pimped out a thirteen-year-old girl for over $670 in total using such a site, whilst other schoolgirls used the site to sell their bodies themselves.
With these sites facilitating enjo kousai (“compensated dating”) to an unprecedented degree, a whole culture (or industry) of schoolgirl prostitution has sprung up, with girls being called “JC” in the slang of the sites, and with the large amounts of money involved encouraging involvement in the trade.
In a similar case to the above, a boy in middle school is said to have advertised “Recruiting JC in Kanagawa. You can make a lot so anyone looking for dates come to me,” and to have pimped out a 16-year-old girl for about $450.
Such prices are said to be the exception rather than the rule, and prices drop even further when pupils engage in prostitution amongst themselves, or when they are younger, with high school students selling themselves to one another for a paltry $35, and middle school pupils charging even less.
These sites have been subjected to increased police scrutiny amidst a major police crackdown, but it appears that many sites have no difficulty in operating discretely without police supervision posing a problem.
Nationwide filtering of children’s access to the Internet is touted as a solution, and is now in effect, but it seems this rather underestimates the ingenuity of such children, particularly when large amounts of money are at stake.
The girls selling their bodies in this way have apparently been getting younger and younger, with elementary schoolers now increasingly turning to prostitution as an easy way of accumulating pocket money; an account of which is provided by the clinic:
“The age at which kids are getting into sex is getting lower. Even girls in middle school are becoming very sexually active. A high school boy came in recently with a second year middle school girl recently, and the pair had been sexually active. The boy asked me to tell his friend about STDs, although at least she was with a good boy.”
However, promotion of condoms has apparently kept pregnancies to a minimum. Even so, some girls are blasé about the matter, and are happy to be pregnant. Even teachers are said to turn a blind eye to pregnancies rather than have to get involved.
Additionally, sexually transmitted diseases appear to be making an impact. Disturbing reports from healthcare professionals indicate that in some clinics, up to 30% of patients were in their teens.
One case is described in lurid detail:
“There was a girl in the fifth year of elementary school who was doing enjo kousai (casual prostitution), she was a groupie for talents. Her pantsu (panties) were always soiled [with blood], and she kept coming in with Chlamydia.”
The clinic staff warned her to stop having sex, but she persisted, and kept returning. Eventually she stopped visiting the clinic entirely.
------
Amongst university students the practice of such informal prostitution is said to be even more common; Japan’s womanhood has at some point apparently became a mass commodity, and it is difficult to see any reasons why this should be the case, at least ones more helpful than “because they are harlots”.
It does however seem the traditional approach of only blaming the men (and boys) involved, and then subjecting them to criminal sanction, has only created a culture where schoolgirls boldly hawk themselves with impunity.
Possibly it may be time to consider why it is these girls are so ready to sell themselves for additional pocket money, and whether it is indeed appropriate to absolve them of all responsibility for their actions…

13-Year-Old Prostitutes herself for $30
A man (38) who engaged in indecent acts with a 13-year-old middle-schooler in a department store toilet, for the price of $30, has been arrested.
He is said to have promised the girl the $30, though we do not hear just what level of service he received; whatever it was, it was enough to get him arrested on child prostitution charges.

Virgins Rare in Japan’s Lusty Schools
Otaku are struggling to come to terms with their enforced celibacy after recent surveys revealed that half of all third year high schoolers were no longer virgins, marking them as even more abnormal than they thought.
The surveys conducted by Japan’s Family Planning Association revealed that 47.3% of boys and 46.5% of girls had some experience of sex by their third year of high school, which coupled with results from other age groups shows a general trend towards sex at earlier ages.
However, observers were puzzled by the 40% decrease in sexual aspirations amongst younger children since the last time the survey was conducted in 1999; now it seems 31% of boys and 14% of girls in their third year of middle school “would like to try” sex, which could either mean their sexual ambitions have decreased, or possibly that they have already tried…
In spite of all this, a disturbing 15% of boys and 18% of girls agreed with the propositions that “it’s best not to have sex” (which bodes ill for the Japanese race) and “sex is best left until marriage” (which in Japan will usually mean waiting until their thirties).
Online reactions range from “I won’t accept it!” to “It seems healthy that there is no great gap between the sexes here”, and of course the blustering “We should be proud that we made it this far as virgins!”

Pedophile videotapes himself having sex with a 9 year old
A man (21), arrested for his amorous antics with a twelve-year-old girl, had an interesting defense for his actions – he thought she was nine.
Police investigations revealed the man to have been introduced to the girl, in her first year of middle school, by a male acquaintance who knew her.
They met at a hotel, and there the man filmed himself having sex with girl, and saved the movie to his computer.
Police received an anonymous tipoff that the girl student had been involved in this, and on conducting searches of the contents of her phone, found it contained incriminating images, at which point they arrested their man.
As a result of all this, he was charged with both obscene acts and making child pornography. His admission was enlightening: “I thought the girl was a 9-year-old.”

Pedophile arrested in $50 3-way teen Car Sex
A man who paid two 14-year-old schoolgirls to have a threesome with him in his car for $55 has been arrested.
The 22-year-old unemployed man, a resident of Fukuoka prefecture, apparently got in touch with the two middle schoolers after they began looking to hawk their bodies on a mobile phone dating site.
With the girls apparently seeking some easy money through enjo kousai (casual prostitution), and he looking for underage sex, he offered them a ride, and the trio later had sex together, with the main paying $55 for both girls.
However, the father of one of the girls began to suspect she was engaged in prostitution and approached police, who investigated and soon pressed charges against the man for violating anti-child prostitution laws.
Japanese schoolgirls are increasingly selling their virtue as a way of easily making extra cash, but rarely does one of their suitors secure them so cheaply, with $28 each being a great bargain compared to some, and one of the cheapest prices yet seen for a youthful Yamato maiden.

University Defends Gang Rapists, Ignores Victim
Jun 4, 2009
A university has attracted almost universal criticism for defending at least six men who gang raped a fellow student, refusing to report them to police on the grounds that “they might commit suicide”.
The crime in question was perpetrated by six students of a Kyoto university, in their early to mid twenties, all of whom have been identified as sports specialists (including football).
The men took turns raping a highly inebriated 19-year-old girl at a drinking party, who had apparently passed out after drinking a large amount of beer. Reportedly, they held the door to the room into which they took the girl shut when a staff member attempted entry, and this aroused suspicions.
The victim reported the rape to the university, which investigated and suspended the perpetrators. It did not bother informing police though.
Police later acted to arrest the six, and all but one denied the crimes, claiming “she wasn’t drunk” and “she consented”. One however admits to the rape and confirms the details established by police.
In addition to the six, several other students are thought to have been present who might have intervened, but did nothing, and police are investigating this.
Whilst the crime itself has been given much coverage by the media, the astonishingly lenient response of the university has attracted equal attention, virtually all condemnatory.
The university first conducted an internal investigation, which concluded that “indecent acts” had indeed taken place. However, they did not report the matter to police, instead opting to merely suspend the rapists.
The university head explained that, had the case been made public, “the perpetrators might be in danger of committing suicide,” and due to these “educational considerations” they were not even expelled, and excused itself further by saying that it was not sure whether a rape had actually taken place, although it did not reveal details of its “investigations”.
He later defended his leniency further to students: “It was a heinous act which trampled on her rights. I wish to raise awareness of human rights, and for you all to reflect on this case. Maybe I’ll be called soft, but we also have a duty to allow these offenders to reform and go out into society at large,” referring to their suspension rather than expulsion.
It seems their victim will be expected to continue attending the same university as her rapists, assuming any of them manage to return to university in timely fashion after serving any ensuing sentences.
The reaction to the case, in particular the handling of the rapists by the university, has been one of outrage, with most observers concerned that the university is more concerned about protecting the perpetrators than it is about what appears to be a very clear example of a crime.

University Let Gang Rapist Teach at School
Jun 5, 2009
The controversy over the recent mishandling of a case of gang rape amongst its students by a Kyoto university has intensified with the news that one of the rapists had just started working as a middle school teacher, and the university apparently deliberately refrained from reporting that they investigated him (which they did not report to police) so he could continue working as a teacher.
The university, the Kyoto University of Education, trains teachers, and amongst those arrested recently for gang raping a fellow student at the university recently was a fresh graduate who had just started working at a local middle school.
He had apparently just started working as an assistant teacher at the school after receiving his licence, but after the details of his participation in the crime emerged the university not only did not report him to police, it did not even inform the local educational board about him.
Considering the remarks of the university head, it seems likely this was done to protect his career, and most likely also the reputation of the university. Whether the university took this into account in refraining from bringing in police at all is an open question.
With the media storm which ensued, the university finally decided to report that he had been suspended (although it seems he managed to graduate and start work despite being suspended months ago all the same) to the educational board. The teacher then immediately resigned, “for personal reasons.”
It seems the number one target for reducing sex crimes in Japan should be the teaching profession, as it looks to be packed with rapists, voyeurs and pedophiles…

Professor Groped Thousands of Breasts Using Logic
Jan 14, 2009
A university professor (62), who taught logic, over a twenty year period called over a thousand of his female students to his office, where he would beguile them with logic into allowing him to fondle their breasts.
He used the same argument each time, and only recently did a student manage to see through it, resulting in his arrest.
His technique was bizarre, but highly logical:
First the professor would call his chosen students to his office, for a lesson in logic:
“I can touch you without laying so much as a finger on you” he would say.
The perplexed students would naturally tend to respond “Impossible.”
If they did, he would follow through with “If I can’t do it, I’ll give you ¥1,000. (US $11)”
If the student agreed to the “wager”, he would immediately pull out his wallet, hand them a ¥1,000 note, and then begin brazenly fondling their breasts.
Those students who complained of sexual harassment or worse, he would silence with the following line of argument: “As you in fact gave verbal assent to the contract and accepted the ¥1,000 fee, the contract is complete. It’s meaningless to try to take this to court.”
He continued this same tactic for some 20 years without issue, and his victims are thought to number over a thousand. None it seems could overcome his logical arguments, or possessed knowledge of the fact that illegal contracts are unenforceable.
Only recently it seems did a student actually bring this to the attention of the proper authorities; he was soon arrested on charges of indecent assault.
Police are scathing, and are look at adding as many charges as they possibly can: “He abused his knowledge of logic to undertake this dastardly scheme.”
----
This unfortunate career of minor infamy certainly place the professor’s reputation in the gutter, but we must also wonder at either the intelligence, or the virtues of his student victims.
Buying his line says little about their wits, whilst settling for a bargain basement groper’s fee of 1,000 also says even less about them…
